Democrats Move to Condemn Trump for January 6 Pardons

Senate Democrats offered a resolution Monday to condemn President Donald Trump’s decision to pardon Jan. 6 defendants who assaulted Capitol Police officers

Senate Democrats offered a resolution Monday to condemn President Donald Trump’s decision to pardon Jan. 6 defendants who assaulted Capitol Police officers, saying the move invites future political violence.

All Democrats and independents who caucus with them signed onto the resolution. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) was not on an initial version of the resolution circularted Monday morning, but a spokesperson confirmed later he supports the effort.

The one-line resolution indicates that “the Senate disapproves of any pardons for individuals who were found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers.”

Though many Trump allies anticipated that he would not pardon or commute sentences for people convicted of assaulting police on Jan. 6, Trump pardoned or ordered the dismissal of charges for all 1,600 defendants. Among them: defendants who beat police with poles and bats, used tasers and bear spray on officers and hurled objects like fire extinguishers and table legs into police lines.
